Bed makeover.....

These 2 pictures show how easily you can re- dress a bed with ready made pillows and a duvet. One thing to notice is the grasscloth wallpaper behind the bed. It is only on one wall, which is a nice way to bring some texture and movement in a room. A less expensive alternative than doing the whole room. In the before picture notice how small the lamps are beside the bed. They look dwarfed next to the scale of a king size bed. If you can't buy new lighting, another way to make them seem larger is to place 2 or 3 books underneath. Also, maybe change out the shades for a more modern look. We added some art above the bedside tables to layer and add more texture and color to the room. With a little effort in one day, we created a softer and more visually pleasing view.
